Sony: Whilst we believe that we have sought and received all
permissions necessary for the creation of the game, we will be
contacting the Cathedral authorities in order to better understand
their concerns in more detail.

Bishop of Manchester
It is well known that Manchester has a gun crime problem, ...
For a global manufacturer to re-create one of our great cathedrals
with photo-realistic quality and then encourage people to have gun
battles in the building is beyond belief and highly irresponsible.
Dean of Manchester Cathedral
We are shocked to see a place of learning, prayer and heritage
being presented to the youth market as a location where guns can
be red.
This is an important issue. For many young people these games
oer a dierent sort of reality and seeing guns in Manchester
Cathedral is not the sort of connection we want to make.

It is game-created footage, it is not video or photography.
It is entertainment, like Doctor Who or any other science ction. It
is not based on reality at all.

Verlauf des Streits
Entschuldigung und Tourismus
Sony: We do not accept that there is any connection between
contemporary issues of 21st century Manchester and a work of
science ction in which a ctitious 1950s Britain is under attack by
aliens. It is not our intention to cause oence by using a
representation of Manchester Cathedral in chapter eight of the
work. If we have done so we sincerely apologise.
Manchester Diocese: Teachers tell us that teenagers in particular
are interested to see a building which they thought was ctional.

Ende des Streites
Vergebung
Dean of Manchester Cathedral: So we do forgive Sony for what
they have done, even though they still believe they have done
nothing wrong. In an industry that is breaking new frontiers, it is
important that long held traditions of lm and television are
maintained. These traditions include having courtesy, respecting the
dignity of your subject, and admitting when mistakes have been
made. In so many ways Sony have failed to live up to these
standards by disrespecting people of faith and the victims of gun
crime here in Manchester.
